An ignorant question: I have downloaded the zip with the new apps 
(though Paint says it's 1.99, 18-Sep-07) and have put the new Paint 
and Draw (1.14) in my Apps directory. However, unless I run them 
explicitly, I get the original ROM-based version; in other words, this 
happens if I double-click on a Sprite file, or run DrawWorks, which is 
set to run Draw automatically.

How do I prevent this happening? Or is it just a question of putting 
the two new apps in Boot > Configure > Look at?
